APHIS Sheep & Goat Sector Meeting• Scrapie program funding increase
• Additional funding for the USSES
• Wildlife Services funding – no less than FY2016 level for livestock damage
research and methods development
• Urge APHIS and FAS to open Japan and Taiwan to lamb exports as soon as possible
• Compliment APHIS for taking action on developing a FMD vaccine bank and urge them to proceed

Sheep & Goat Sector Meeting• Urge APHIS/National Center for Veterinary Biologics to
formally use foreign equivalency data and allow for routine importation of foreign-made/licensed vaccines
• Urge the implementation of a Q-Fever readiness plan that includes animal vaccinations
• Encourage APHIS/WS to continue and expand research into lethal and non-lethal methods development including coyote contraception to help mitigate coyote damage to livestock
• Funding for FARAD and NRSP-7 are critically important to proper & legal compliant use of antimicrobials. While neither are currently funded or managed by APHIS, we urge APHIS to advocate for and help find a permanent solution to the continuing these programs.

6
FMD is the major animal disease preventing world trade of animals and animal products
Adults: Mortality is low but morbidity is high
Young animals: High mortality associated with some strains
Not a public health or food safety concern

Tools for Control of FMD
• Stop Movement• Biosecurity• Stamping Out
– Slaughter of all clinically affected and in-contact susceptible animals (within 24 hours or as soon as possible)
• Trace-back/Trace-forward– 28 days prior to outbreak
• Rapid Diagnostics• Vaccination

Vaccine Needs
March 14, 2016: USDA Seeking Information from Foot and Mouth Disease Vaccine Manufacturers -
APHIS would like to have a minimum of 25 million doses for each of the 10 high-risk FMD strains available.
Projected cost for this level of readiness is high and is proposed to be included in next Farm Bill.
